So I'm planning on buying a big bag of Glucomannan powder, it's made from konjac root which is the main ingredient in miracle noodles.
It'll help me lose weight that I'll gain this holiday season. What I know about it is: It's all organic. Vegan. It has a positive effect on cholesterol levels and increases satiety. Several studies have shown that glucomannan has these positive attributes. It can absorb 200 times its own weight in water. Con is it can cause constipation or dehydration but that is if it's not used in moderation. I plan to drink 1/2 a gallon a day so that won't be a problem.
I'll either make noodles with it or just mix a teaspoon of it in 2 cups of water and chug 15 min before a meal.
Has anyone had any experience with it?
